Any tips to using the P-06? Picked it up this morning, but I've been getting murdered by an even lower standard of internet random than I normally get bodied by.

Get used to firing before you scope - once you get the pause into muscle memory it's very easy to just hit the button on reflex when you see someone then drag your aim onto them before the gun fires.

Called in a wraith whilst running on Hunted, causing it to not be able to see the map at all and get 0 kills. No one shot it down though! (They couldn't see it.)

Thought I got 1/2 on vision pulse multi kills but apparently I was a fraction too slow. That time limit is infuriating.

The VP timing is really awkward. You basically have to kill them IMMEDIATELY after they get pulsed. If you activate and kill before they get hit, no credit, if you wait until barely after the pulse has finished, no credit.

Easiest way to do it is camp somewhere high traffic with C4 armed, or run stealthy perks and sneak up behind the enemy team, pulse and double kill at point blank range.

Puckish Rogue
Jun 24, 2010

Yeah the stealth tactic I'm currently doing, but may make a C4 class for when I get frustrated. We're in game 4 of hunted now and I'm getting itchy for a smaller map.

I'm doing vision pulse right now and it's not that bad. Do it the same way you get overdrive and armor kills - wait until you're behind someone, trigger it and immediately shoot. By the time they register the ping they're already dead.

Haven't tried glitch yet and I'm pretty sure that's gonna suck.

Getting four glitch kills in one game, four times is gonna suck. Same with vision pulse, rejack, and maybe active camo.

Puckish Rogue

Imo just don't. Except active camo as that is my first to do when I finish vision pulse.

I'm fine with multiple times in a match, even on REJACK. It's the rapid kills which makes me want to dedicate my life to evil and/or math.

The PC port is pretty bad for most people. Maybe you'll be lucky and it will work for you.

Just to demonstrate a sample of what I was excessively bitching about last night:

http://xboxdvr.com/gamer/ASaggyClothCat/video/13430927

Right at the start, when edging out from behind the bus, notice how it skips like there's a lag between frames? That's not the video, that's what was happening to me in game last night constantly. Often a lot worse too, like a really bad stutter, or missing half a seconds worth of frames so people just appear from around corners, or teleport 3 feet to the side as I'm shooting them.

Even more frustrating when my alleged in-game ping is 80-90ms :rolleyes:

I'm used to people lagging since the days of CoD4, but this feels different, like the entire game is performing badly.

A lot of my games have been like that the past week and a half or so. I lose so many gunfights now. Hardcore is unplayable. I supposedly have a 30-60ms ping so its really frustrating.

Malted beverages are (usually sweetened) non alcoholic beverages made from roasted malted grain, and they're delicious. Depending on the brand it's like a sugary stout minus the hops, with a rich mouth feel.

Scavenger Flash is what I pull out in any lobby I suspect of being loaded with M8/Vesper tryhards. Often attached to a shotgun for maximum anger.

It's also just a plain good setup for a lot of modes honestly, getting hit by a flash in this game is absolutely debilitating without tac mask.

Knifegrab posted:

For close range, yes, there's very little in the game that can kill faster.

Amazingly, pretty much every smg has something going for it though, so there isn't really a 'best'.

Vesper - high ttk, but eats ammo, harsh damage falloff and recoil

VMP - similar to the Vesper, just toned down slightly, so lower ttk but less ammo consumption and recoil/damage falloff

Kuda - super fast 3hk up close, good damage falloff to 5hk

Pharo - super faster 3hk up close, good damage falloff, good accuracy with bursts, but trades off hipfire potential due to burst delay compared to the VMP

Weevil - high ammo capacity, decent damage falloff, but second lowest ttk of subs

Razorback - really a cut down AR, superb accuracy and good damage falloff, but the worst sub ttk, and low ttk in general

Mostly it just comes down to what feels good to you, they can all excel if you play to their strengths and their particular rof/recoil/range mix suits your playstyle.

If you use the Weevil or the Razorback, make a conscious effort not to get into head to head firefights with other subs up close, you'll lose.

I personally have trouble handling the VMP for whatever reason, so if I'm playing extremely aggressively I tend to run a Vesper or Pharo. If I want sub handling but the ability to fight at midrange, I take the Razorback. I'm not fond of the rof on the Kuda/Weevil (and HVK/Dingo), something about it doesn't work well for me, might be the rof in combination with the recoil, might be where the ttk falls at range, dunno.

Stock is extremely good on all subs, and Suppressor is solid too. The Vesper and VMP are two of the only guns in the game I prefer to run fast/ext mags on.

Can't tell you if rapid fire is worth it unfortunately, haven't done the math on it yet.
